some of the same things we heard president obama talk about. but we also can't forget the issue of immigration because a lot of the workforce here in this country comes from mexico and then there is the issue of what do you do about illegal immigrants in this country. something the president said he wanted to tackle in his first term he did not. he's promising to do in his second term. we heard from white house spokesman jay carney saying yesterday that the president senses a real opportunity here to move forward, that he believes that comprehensive immigration reform is achievable. so this is a long-standing relationship between the two countries, focusing on a whole host of issues, but the mexicans hoping it can focus more on economic issues than it has in the past. >> so economic issues, comprehensive immigration reform. i are have to ask you about the issue in terms of fighting drug cartels. how will president elect pena nieto be different in his approach? >> reporter: that's right. you make a very important point there, because felipe cald
